Excellent location, beautiful surroundings and easy access to its private beach! Monkeys stole the show! Plenty of wildlife to see! Breakfast buffet was ok, not many selections. The hotel could use a hot tub especially during rainy season when the temperatures are low.

This property is NOT worthy of a 4-star category. I had booked a Oceanview room with a king bed for a 2 night stay. There were several issues.Toilet would not flush unless you press & hold the knob all the way until it completed the flush cycle. Calling repair service didn't help. Bathroom sink faucet was actually a very old style single handle with a long spout more like a kitchen sink faucet. Bathroom sink had no sink stopper or strainer with ugly sinkhole fully visible. Old wooden furniture with sticky wooden top surface everywhere in the room. All the old furniture, bathroom & shower fixtures desperately needs upgrading for aesthetic and appealing look & feel. Breakfast choices in the restaurant were very mediocre with very little options for vegetarians. For me this was more like a 2.5 star hotel and doesn't deserve 4-star classification.

I had a really delightful stay here. It’s in a beautiful place, easily accessible by taxi. I was lucky enough to get upgraded to a jungle view room and had monkeys visit me every day on the balcony. My only critique was that the food was unimpressive. Breakfast was disappointing and the dinner was rather bland and underseasoned and a bit over priced. But I took a taxi into town for the second night and had a great meal there. The staff was kind and professional and the facilities were very clean. The views from the room and pool are breathtaking.

It rained the entire time that we were there and they made sure to make it a pleasant experience regardless of the weather. Great customer service, safe place, cleaning was great. I love them. I was with a 3 year old and would pick us up in a cart. It was fabulous.

Staff was awesome, Alan the chef was amazing. Alan prepared a dish specifically made for us and it was delicious, he went out of his way to make us feel at home, thank you Alan! Edgar the waiter prepared a tropical juice that we would have every morning and had us thinking about it all day long. The staff at the office, they were just so helpful. Kevin, the best and always wanting to help us, we are going to miss you Kevin, hope you are enjoying your vacation, you deserve it! All in all if we ever go back this is the place where we will stay! Again thank you Shana by the beach. And PURA ViDA my friends.

Gem on the Pacific side!
Even though we had a problem getting the TV to work properly and the AC froze up, they immediately and pleasantly fixed the issues with little to know problems. The staff was super helpful and kind in their service. The view, pool, and pool area are stunning and relaxing.
